The Seymour Duncan Antiquity Retrospec'd neck humbucker delivers an articulate, yet mellow tone that results from a perfectly balanced frequency response that combines a soft, sweet treble attack with a warm, full sounding low-end. The Alnico II bar magnet creates an airy openness to the top-end that gives chords clarity and articulation, while the vintage output coils really bring out the rich harmonic content. Single notes have a beautiful singing quality with just the right amount of treble emphasis. The Antiquity Retrospec'd series offers all the beloved Antiquity tone of yesteryear in a brand new, cosmetically non-aged look.
